Nightlife
Nightlife is less important in LA than in other cities mainly due to the traffic. Westwood, a college town of many 10s of thousands of students, has only 2 bars! Going out mostly involves dining - see next section. If you do brave going out there is still plenty to do - comedy, music, dance - you name it you can find it.
